“Alyssa and family took such great care of our pup while we were away. We received multiple updates daily letting us see how much fun he was having. Resident dog Bella was also an amazing friend for our Pablo. We would highly recommend them to anyone.”
“Carri took SUCH good care of my little puppy!!! She made me feel so comfortable leaving a baby for the first time and made me feel like she was one of my best friends watching my dog by her communication and daily updates! I would truly trust her with my dogs life now and she has gained my trust forever and my dogs new favorite home away from home! Thank you so much!!!❤️”
“Ms Melanie was awesome. I could tell the second she saw Oliver that he was in good hands. Oliver had a great time and did not freak when I left because he felt at home too. Thanks Melanie, you'll see us again.”
“Deborah was so great with our timid Luna! She’s the best sitter we’ve ever used (even including our friends and family, lol! 🫣). Deborah was always quick to respond and easy to communicate with. She sent multiple pictures of Luna each day, keeping us up to date with their activities and helping us feel like we weren’t so far away. Even though our booking was super last minute for the weekend, Deborah’s place was perfectly prepared for Luna’s stay. Her home is easy to find and located in a quiet residential neighborhood without through traffic. When we arrived for drop off, Deborah had made an adorable hand-decorated sign which she pinned on her front door welcoming us to “Luna’s Weekend Retreat”. 🌺 She welcomed us inside and I’ve never seen Luna take to a new place so quickly; she immediately made herself at home in the spa-like cloud bed which had been made fresh for her and lined with a curated selection of dog toys for her choosing. She didn’t even get up when we were leaving, which has never happened before at a drop off! We were put so at ease leaving Luna in Deborah’s care for the weekend, and we’re thrilled to receive pictures of their adventures exploring the neighborhood trail, getting brushes and pedicures, and just generally being loved and cared for as if Luna was Deborah’s own pupper to love and dote on. ❤️ Luna’s well behaved and easy to care for, but is also quietly anxious and afraid of loud noises. She is a rescued staffy and has “resting ASPCA face” much of the time, even with us, so I never blame a sitter for her expressions, but we can always tell from seeing her eyes, brows, and ears in photos how relaxed and comfortable she is, and Deborah was somehow able to put Luna at ease, even on 4th of July weekend with scary fireworks popping! We’re so grateful to have found Deborah as our new go to sitter. Now we’re going to have to make up and plan new trips just to give Luna a reason to get to go adventure and sleep over with her new friend! 🥰 Thanks endlessly, Deborah!”
“It didn’t take 30 seconds of meeting Regina to know that Murphy was going to be in good hands. We loved the updates and pictures throughout his stay. I would 100% use Regina’s services again.”

Pendiente de ellos que no les falte nada ni que coman nada extraño. Que estén al día con todo siempre
“Misty is the best! My dog, Roxy usually doesn't eat when I am away, but she ate while being with Misty, and I could tell by the videos and pics that she enjoyed her time with Misty. I will definitely come back to her for the next trip.”
“Heather and her family were such a joy! They took amazing care of my dog, Doug and checked in regularly with thoughtful notes and pictures. Highly recommend this sweet woman.”
“Excellent!! Kristen & Steven gave our little shitzu so much care and love. They sent pictures and touched base with us regularly. We were very nervous about leaving her anywhere and we now can go on trips since we found the best sitter’s in Cookeville . Already planning her next stay .she’s never been around dogs and their own dogs also were so gentle and kind tords her . I can’t say enough great things about the way they treated our pup !! We could not have had a better experience!! Thank you again Kristen and Steven . And Biscuit is missing you all .”
“Robert replied to our inquiry almost immediately when we were last minute finding a place for our dogs. The dogs were happily welcomed by Robert and took no time getting acquainted with his backyard. Such a great place and great family to stay with!”
“Cindy did a wonderful job taking care of our pup! Taking care of a young puppy is a big job, and she took it on with competence, grace, and kindness. Our puppy seemed to have a wonderful time there, with lots of outdoor adventures and indoor snuggles. Cindy kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, and we never worried about how she was doing. We are so thankful we found her to watch Dove and look forward to another stay in the future!”
“It has been such a pleasure and a relief to have left our girl with Kaitlyn and her family. The first time we left her with someone, it was such a sketchy experience that we weren’t sure we’d ever use Rover again. She was covered in fleas and she seemed to develop a bad habit or two. But now our faith has been restored! We got updates with pictures every day, she was clean and had playmates to keep her happy and busy too. I really hope we’re able to come back here if ever we need to ☺️.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 15 years old. I looked after a lot of my family's pets while they were on vacation. And I washed my two dogs every single day. My dogs are like my kids. They're my whole world! First thing in the morning and last thing at night is taking care of them. I have a million toys on the ground at any given time and comfy furniture to sleep on.

“Erica was a dream come true. Her and her family took in our three golden retrievers and treated them like they were her own. She communicated often, sent pictures of the dogs and asked very good questions to help them remain comfortable in her care. I honestly won the lotto in choosing her for our dog care when traveling. We had total peace of mind while we were away and it was 100% due to the loving care and true investment Erica and her loving made to our three dogs. Erica is our go to from now on!”
“As soon as we arrived, we felt at ease meeting Presli and Luna. Presli showed us around her home and where our Julio would be for the next few days. We were happy to know he could around with Luna, and be able to relax and sleep inside her home. We felt extremely comfortable leaving our fur baby with Presli, we knew she would care for him like her own! I highly recommend Presli for all your 4 legged babies! If we are back in TN and in need of a sitter, I have Presli information saved. Thank you so much Presli and Luna for welcoming our Julio to your beautiful home and land!”

About: I have practically always had animals be apart of my life. I grew up with a stray cat who would become my own cat at a young age. And I would often take care of my grandmothers dog named Socks in both their old age. I once rescued a baby bird and even a baby deer more recently. I’ve looked after pets of family and friends and friends of family and friends. I currently own a cat named Chance, and my job for about 3 years is a dog daycare and board which also provides grooming services such as baths, nail trims, etc. I hold a huge spot in my heart for animals and I foresee myself always doing something with them. I work part time, so I typically have a lot of free time to explore other ventures. And with me also having the full weekend to myself, it would be great to spend that time taking care of pets. At the moment, I live with my parents and pet sitting there couldn’t happen given my mom is afraid of dogs, but if I were pet sitting in a clients home, I would be more than respectful and appreciative of the trust.
“Sophie is wonderful! She is very organized, patient, and a great communicator. She took care of my 3 cats, all with different temperaments. She made sure they had food, water, treats, a clean litter box, and played with them. 10/10 would hire again and would reccomend.”

I have been raised around cats, and have helped a mother deliver her 11 kittens… that just so happened to be on my birthday, best gift ever… so I am quite familiar with medical care, and overall boundaries when it comes to making your babies feel comfortable. My girls have never known a “spook” before so I can assure you it will be my goal to keep your angels as comfortable as possible while you are away!
“Esther has been doing drop-in visits for our Bichon since early 2024. She is so dependable, knowledgeable and kind to our Lucy, and I cannot sing her praises enough.

“Carri is just amazing! She was very understanding of my anxious dog with separation anxiety and made dropping him off a breeze. Would def recommend and will rebook again in the future. She even sent my Hershey home with a mini dog care bag. She goes above and beyond and you can really tell that she cares for the dogs.”
“Jordan was such a great caretaker for my puppy, Mavis. I appreciated her communication and the photos she took of their day together. Mavis came back a very happy camper. I would highly recommend Jordan to anyone needing wonderful care for their pet.”
“Regina is wonderful watching our Schatzi. When Schatzi arrived she was excited to be there. She was a little bit shy because she heard another dog, but I know she settled in quickly. When we picked her up, she was happy but was tired out from all her excitement of the day and needed a nap :)”
“Highly recommend Mariah!! We needed extremely last minute daycare for our 2 pups and Mariah was a life saver! Very communicative, friendly & professional. Sent lots of photo updates & our little ones seemed to have a grand old time with her! Would definitely book again”

About: We are a couple of dog lovers and experienced caretakers with three dogs of our own. We actually met on Rover many years ago! We are committed to offering a level of care and quality that puts you and your pup at total ease. Our #1 goal is to create a peaceful, safe, happy environment for your dog. We are attuned to how dogs respond to energy and emotions, and we remain calm and patient with all animals under our care. Pet care is central to our daily routine. One or both of us will almost always be home while your pet stays with us. Each day centers around creating a positive experience for your dog, with a healthy mix of activity and relaxation. Our home is a peaceful place for dogs to be themselves. Kirsten is a yoga teacher, and Steven is a massage therapist, so together we are very good at creating a calm environment! Our three-story house offers plenty of space to sprawl. The fenced yard is big enough for dogs to zoom to their hearts' content. The outdoor deck is a perfect place to watch birds and squirrels. Your dog will feel like they've stepped into a Bob Ross painting! Our dogs would love to play with yours, but if you prefer no contact with our dogs, we can offer private living quarters. All dogs are given free range of the house unless private quarters are requested. You can rest assured knowing your baby is living their best life on their doggy retreat, so you can be present and enjoy your own travels.

About: I’ve always loved animals, (especially cats, I’m a huge cat person), so I’ve had at least one or two ever since I was little, and throughout the years I’ve learned how to take care of them.

I can take care of animals indoors. I have an animal gate to help prevent them from going upstairs and having access to the stairs.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from puppies just a few weeks old to senior dogs. I’ve helped care for litters alongside their mom, worked on basic puppy training, and understand the extra patience and attention both young and older dogs need. I’ve pet sat many different breeds and enjoy keeping dogs active with walks, playtime, and trips to the dog park.

About: I've taken care of animals starting from a young age. I love animals and enjoy having them around and caring for them. Animals are a significant part of my everyday life. I spend my time home caring for my dog and children. It's a very important part of each day. Between feeding them each meal to walking them and playing with them, they're heavily integrated into our lives. I have a friendly dog who loves to play. I also have two children who love animals but are also good with boundaries considering these pets will be in an unfamiliar environment. I personally care for each pet that comes into my home, but my children will be present.
About: I have four years of professional pet care experience working with a wide variety of animals, including high-energy breeds that need plenty of exercise and older dogs requiring gentle attention. Whether you are away on vacation or just need a daily check-in, I offer reliable house visits for both dogs and cats. I customize my care to match your pet's unique routine, energy levels, and medication needs so you can travel with total peace of mind. I am a Master's student at Tennessee Tech with a highly flexible routine that easily accommodates consistent pet care. Because I manage my own study and research hours, I have plenty of time during the day for midday dog walking, drop-in neighborhood check-ins, and flexible house visits. My weeks are highly adaptable, and my weekends are entirely open for dedicated boarding or overnight sitting. I focus on building trustworthy personal relationships with owners while providing an active, safe environment for their pets. I run regularly and have the energy to perfectly match high-energy breeds, but I am equally experienced and gentle with older dogs and cats who need calm, attentive house visits. Whether caring for a pet in my own home—which includes a safe, covered porch—or looking after them in yours while you are on vacation, I strictly follow your rules for crating, feeding, and routine to keep your best friend safe and comfortable.

I provide regular check-ins, photos, and updates so you always know your pet is in good hands. Whether it’s a dog who needs long walks or a shy cat who prefers a quiet spot, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel secure and cared for every step of the way.
About: I have cared for just about every animal type - dogs, cats, rodents, fish, and a few exotic reptiles and amphibians. In that scope, I’ve managed surprise litters, caring for young and senior pets with all their needs. I’m currently working from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I will have my elementary age kids and our senior dog with me every other week, and we’re unfortunately allergic to cats. I have a large fenced in yard, plus my own dog every other week. She is a bit picky about other dogs depending on their size, age, and personality.

My experience includes everything from energetic puppies and large playgroups to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care.

About: My name is Hannah, but I go by Mikki. I have had pets since I was 15 years old and they have ranged from cats, dogs, and the exotic! I have a serious love for all the different types of fur-babies and am a proud pet parent myself! I’m the purrfect fit if you love someone enthusiastic about animals and their care, someone who is strict with rules and restrictions, and someone who is flexible! I have worked in a pet boarding type facility in the past and carry much experience wrangling dogs of all sizes and in all group sizes, with all different types of personalities. I also have a dog and cat myself. My daily schedule involves me waking up and letting my dog out while preparing their breakfast. After they eat, we get some snuggles in until it’s time to go potty. Later on, it time for dinner and then a nightly walk 30 minutes to an hour after dinner has been served. That ends our adventure for the day! For Drop-Ins: I stop by for feedings and enrichment for between 30 minutes to an hour. I make sure they care squared away and everything is locked up before I leave. For Walks: It’s simple … we just go for walks. 30 minutes to an hour or whatever set path and time per appointment. For House-Sitting: I set a time for me to come over. I stay for the duration of the appointment set and bring my own necessities so that I don’t have to leave the premises. I stay within your home, where your babies are most comfortable, and provide them with company and a set schedule. Before I confirm a booking, I will ALWAYS set up a meet-and-greet. I need to be able to sit down with the fur-babies and parents so we can get a good view of the vibes and to see if I would be a good fit. These meet-and-greets are NOT OPTIONAL and refusal will result in a CANCELED BOOKING! Sitting should be a comfortable experience for pet, pet parent, and sitter. Checking the vibes and getting details is critical for success.
About: I have practically always had animals be apart of my life. I grew up with a stray cat who would become my own cat at a young age. And I would often take care of my grandmothers dog named Socks in both their old age. I once rescued a baby bird and even a baby deer more recently. I’ve looked after pets of family and friends and friends of family and friends. I currently own a cat named Chance, and my job for about 3 years is a dog daycare and board which also provides grooming services such as baths, nail trims, etc. I hold a huge spot in my heart for animals and I foresee myself always doing something with them. I work part time, so I typically have a lot of free time to explore other ventures. And with me also having the full weekend to myself, it would be great to spend that time taking care of pets. At the moment, I live with my parents and pet sitting there couldn’t happen given my mom is afraid of dogs, but if I were pet sitting in a clients home, I would be more than respectful and appreciative of the trust.
About: Hello! I have grown up with animals all my life. I am very much a dog person and love them like my own family. My favorite part is playing with them so that they sleep super soundly at night. I know how to teach your dog some tricks and show them a lot of love. I am extremely patient and have taught several dogs to be housebroken and how to sit, shake, and lay down. I have been dog sitting for others for a little over 6 years now. I am very confident in my abilities with dogs and how to handle them. I have been around them my whole life and know how important they are to everyone’s lives if cared for properly. I do currently work full time and am currently studying to take my Boards to become a licensed physical therapist. I am able to do mid day potty breaks if close enough to my work. Otherwise, I will make sure that your pet is well taken care of in the morning and evenings. I care for each dog/pet as if they were my own. I will love them, care for them, and tend to their needs as if they are my own family. I want to make every dog feel extremely loved through all the petting and playing that they can imagine and want.
About: When I’m pet sitting your best friends, they will receive Play Time, Constant Attention, Affection, Love, as well as a safe environment to be in. Animals are my passion and are a ginormous part of my life. I will go above and beyond for your four-legged best friend 💪🏽 after all…. It’s what they deserve for their undying loyalty. I’m currently a student who studies virtually from home. I have open availability throughout the entire week. Being a student allows me to have a lot of free time. Your fur babies will be exercised, loved, and be safe at all times with me. I look forward to taking care of your best friend I have a dog named Bear who’s an absolute sweetheart. His daily schedule is eating supplements, vitamins, and his food once in the morning and once at night. He takes 1-2 hour daily trips to the Dog Park, and well as receiving constant affection and love. Your dog deserves the same treatment.
About: Hi, I'm Danny! I’m a dog trainer and enrichment-focused sitter based in Nashville, TN. I’ve been working with dogs for over 20 years, and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and what makes them happy. While I do great with all dogs, I especially have a soft spot for high-energy pups and strong personalities — the ones people often say are “a lot of dog.” Whether it’s a German Shepherd, Malinois, Rottweiler, or just an energetic family dog that needs more structure, I’m here to help them succeed. My approach is simple: your dog doesn’t just get watched — they get engaged. Every visit includes some level of enrichment, whether that’s structured walks, light training, play, or helping reinforce good habits. This keeps your dog mentally stimulated, which usually means a calmer, happier pup when you get home. I’ve also worked with: Puppies who are still learning the basics (potty training, routines, etc.) Senior dogs who need a slower, more patient approach Dogs with special needs, including hearing or vision loss Reactive or strong-willed dogs that need someone confident and consistent No matter the dog, I adjust to their needs and energy. I work from home full-time, so your dog gets real attention — not someone rushing in and out between a busy schedule. I also make sure you stay updated with photos, videos, and clear communication so you always feel at ease. At the end of the day, I treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your pup needs calm companionship or someone who can match their energy, you can count on me to show up with patience, structure, and genuine care. If you think we’d be a good fit, feel free to reach out — I’d love to meet you and your dog! Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, complementing my outdoor adventures and entrepreneurial endeavors. While I cherish my time in nature, I ensure that my furry friends receive ample love and attention during indoor moments, especially as I work on e-commerce platforms that celebrate my profound affection for dogs. Whether it's romping through the great outdoors or nurturing my digital ventures, pet care remains a cherished priority woven into the fabric of my life. At both my home and my client's, your pet's well-being is my top priority. They'll receive constant supervision under my watchful eye. If I need to step out briefly, your pet will either accompany me or stay in our specially designated play area. This secure space is equipped with all the essentials: water, a cozy bed, doggie TV for entertainment, and a camera for continuous monitoring, ensuring their safety and comfort at all times. Your pet's happiness and security are paramount in every aspect of their care with me.
About: My entire life I have been raised around large breed dogs, cats, and fish. I am also familiar with reptile, monkey, equestrian, farm animal, and small mammal care. Such as cleaning pens, feedings, cleaning tanks, ear canal cleanings, nail trimming, bathing, and deshedding! The personal pets you see listed on my profile are 100% accurate as well, most people find it shocking but I’ve always been raised around an entire pack of animals and they are all in the best health with the most love we could possibly surround them with!

I can ensure that I will leave your house cleaner than when I arrived. My parents run 5 AirBnB cabins, and I am the housekeeper for the guests to ensure sanitary sheets, towels, and plates/dishes are provided. As well as a well kept, and clean living environment while they enjoy our stay with us! I was previously a school custodian for South Warren Middle School in Bowling Green, KY, so cleaning was a daily job for me and I thoroughly enjoy it. Now I hope to love on animals and make sure that THEY stay in a sanitary and clean environment.
About: I make sure to show the animals all the love and attention they need! It is more to taking care of pets than just feeding and walking them! They need physical affection as well! I have two dogs myself so i’m very used to taking good care of animals 24/7. I want to do this full time so it would fit into my schedule very well! I make sure to take lots of time with my animals and i also make sure to keep a very close eye on certain animals!
About: I treat every pet like they're my own, taking the time to learn their routine, personality, and individual needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm patient and attentive with puppies who are still learning routines, and I'm equally comfortable caring for senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, or extra care and attention.

“Alyssa and family took such great care of our pup while we were away. We received multiple updates daily letting us see how much fun he was having. Resident dog Bella was also an amazing friend for our Pablo. We would highly recommend them to anyone.”
“Carri took SUCH good care of my little puppy!!! She made me feel so comfortable leaving a baby for the first time and made me feel like she was one of my best friends watching my dog by her communication and daily updates! I would truly trust her with my dogs life now and she has gained my trust forever and my dogs new favorite home away from home! Thank you so much!!!❤️”
“Ms Melanie was awesome. I could tell the second she saw Oliver that he was in good hands. Oliver had a great time and did not freak when I left because he felt at home too. Thanks Melanie, you'll see us again.”
“Deborah was so great with our timid Luna! She’s the best sitter we’ve ever used (even including our friends and family, lol! 🫣). Deborah was always quick to respond and easy to communicate with. She sent multiple pictures of Luna each day, keeping us up to date with their activities and helping us feel like we weren’t so far away. Even though our booking was super last minute for the weekend, Deborah’s place was perfectly prepared for Luna’s stay. Her home is easy to find and located in a quiet residential neighborhood without through traffic. When we arrived for drop off, Deborah had made an adorable hand-decorated sign which she pinned on her front door welcoming us to “Luna’s Weekend Retreat”. 🌺 She welcomed us inside and I’ve never seen Luna take to a new place so quickly; she immediately made herself at home in the spa-like cloud bed which had been made fresh for her and lined with a curated selection of dog toys for her choosing. She didn’t even get up when we were leaving, which has never happened before at a drop off! We were put so at ease leaving Luna in Deborah’s care for the weekend, and we’re thrilled to receive pictures of their adventures exploring the neighborhood trail, getting brushes and pedicures, and just generally being loved and cared for as if Luna was Deborah’s own pupper to love and dote on. ❤️ Luna’s well behaved and easy to care for, but is also quietly anxious and afraid of loud noises. She is a rescued staffy and has “resting ASPCA face” much of the time, even with us, so I never blame a sitter for her expressions, but we can always tell from seeing her eyes, brows, and ears in photos how relaxed and comfortable she is, and Deborah was somehow able to put Luna at ease, even on 4th of July weekend with scary fireworks popping! We’re so grateful to have found Deborah as our new go to sitter. Now we’re going to have to make up and plan new trips just to give Luna a reason to get to go adventure and sleep over with her new friend! 🥰 Thanks endlessly, Deborah!”
“It didn’t take 30 seconds of meeting Regina to know that Murphy was going to be in good hands. We loved the updates and pictures throughout his stay. I would 100% use Regina’s services again.”
“Excellent!! Kristen & Steven gave our little shitzu so much care and love. They sent pictures and touched base with us regularly. We were very nervous about leaving her anywhere and we now can go on trips since we found the best sitter’s in Cookeville . Already planning her next stay .she’s never been around dogs and their own dogs also were so gentle and kind tords her . I can’t say enough great things about the way they treated our pup !! We could not have had a better experience!! Thank you again Kristen and Steven . And Biscuit is missing you all .”
“Robert replied to our inquiry almost immediately when we were last minute finding a place for our dogs. The dogs were happily welcomed by Robert and took no time getting acquainted with his backyard. Such a great place and great family to stay with!”
“Cindy did a wonderful job taking care of our pup! Taking care of a young puppy is a big job, and she took it on with competence, grace, and kindness. Our puppy seemed to have a wonderful time there, with lots of outdoor adventures and indoor snuggles. Cindy kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, and we never worried about how she was doing. We are so thankful we found her to watch Dove and look forward to another stay in the future!”
“It has been such a pleasure and a relief to have left our girl with Kaitlyn and her family. The first time we left her with someone, it was such a sketchy experience that we weren’t sure we’d ever use Rover again. She was covered in fleas and she seemed to develop a bad habit or two. But now our faith has been restored! We got updates with pictures every day, she was clean and had playmates to keep her happy and busy too. I really hope we’re able to come back here if ever we need to ☺️.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 15 years old. I looked after a lot of my family's pets while they were on vacation. And I washed my two dogs every single day. My dogs are like my kids. They're my whole world! First thing in the morning and last thing at night is taking care of them. I have a million toys on the ground at any given time and comfy furniture to sleep on. My dogs also get snack time twice a day.
“Erica was a dream come true. Her and her family took in our three golden retrievers and treated them like they were her own. She communicated often, sent pictures of the dogs and asked very good questions to help them remain comfortable in her care. I honestly won the lotto in choosing her for our dog care when traveling. We had total peace of mind while we were away and it was 100% due to the loving care and true investment Erica and her loving made to our three dogs. Erica is our go to from now on!”
“As soon as we arrived, we felt at ease meeting Presli and Luna. Presli showed us around her home and where our Julio would be for the next few days. We were happy to know he could around with Luna, and be able to relax and sleep inside her home. We felt extremely comfortable leaving our fur baby with Presli, we knew she would care for him like her own! I highly recommend Presli for all your 4 legged babies! If we are back in TN and in need of a sitter, I have Presli information saved. Thank you so much Presli and Luna for welcoming our Julio to your beautiful home and land!”

“Izabella and her family were so good to our pom Sammy. He got a lot of attention and play time with her kids, which would have made him feel right at home, plus her own dogs were very sweet. They were very accommodating and gave us lots of updates. 10/10 for not having to worry about our sweet boy while we were on vacation.”
About: I've had dogs for over 13 years. My childhood dog is now 14 and still going strong.

If anything outside of this is needed just message and I can probably adjust my work schedule if needed. I understand having someone care over your pets can be fearful. I accommodate to your pets personality. If they need outside time to run and play, we will have a blast outdoors. If they prefer relaxing and playing indoors with shorter outdoor trips I am also a great fir for that. My pets have their own area upstairs. So the downstairs space will be for dog sitting.
